The non-blocking functions on non-x86 architectures require ucontext. However, ucontext is not properly detected on Apple Silicon systems because _XOPEN_SOURCE must be set in order to expose makecontext to the compiler. The error log indicates:

The message states that the ucontext functions are deprecated. However, in my testing the functions do work on Apple Silicon systems, and they are the only way to enable MYSQL_OPT_NONBLOCK on those machines. I will open a pull request on GitHub with the changes that I suggest.
